Title: System for corneal reprofiling
Inventor: MULLER DAVID F
IPC: A61F9/007
Filed: 1995-12-04
Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for corneal reprofiling employing an annular beam of ablative radiation to correct refractive errors in vision, and/or create "blend zones" in order to reduce any surface discontinuities on the cornea following hyperopia-correcting or astigmatism-correcting procedures. Preferably, the methods and systems of the present invention also operate to change the intensity distribution of the light beam, such that the annulus of radiation has a varying intensity as a function of radius and, thereby, achieves a blending or other desired effect with the least number of pulses. Methods of photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) are disclosed, including the steps of (a) selectively reprofiling a cornea of an eye by removing a volume of corneal tissue with ablative radiation to form a reprofiled region in the optical zone which steepens, at least in part, the central curvature of the cornea; and (b) applying to a peripheral region of the cornea an annular beam of ablative radiation having an intensity which varies radially from a inner to a outer segment of the annular beam to create a blend zone, thereby providing a smooth transition between the repro filed region and an unablated region of the cornea. Optical lens elements also are disclosed having a generally conic front face and a rear face which is generally perpendicular to the path of the incident beam. Light passing through this optical element will be refracted into an annular beam. Variations in the intensity profile of the annular beam can be introduced by employing an initial beam which has a non-uniform profile, or by modifying the shape of either the front face or the rear face of the optical element.

Title: Method and apparatus for performing surgery inside the human retina using fluidic internal limiting membrane (ilm) separation (films)
Inventor: MORRIS ROBERT E
IPC: A61F9/007
Filed: 1999-06-21
Abstract: A method and apparatus for performing surgery inside the human retina using fluidic internal limiting membrane separation (FILMS) to remove the internal limiting retinal layer from the neural retinal layer at the macula. The method comprises inserting a hollow microcannula between the retinal internal limiting membrane and the neural retinal layer at or near the macula and injecting a sterile fluid, such as sodium hyaluronate, through said microcannula and thereby raising the macular internal limiting membrane retinal layer away from the neural retina such that it can then be removed by conventional means, while simultaneously smoothing the neural retina by localized pressure tamponad. The apparatus comprises a hollow microcannula having a proximal end a distal end and a distal tip. The distal end is shaped to conform tangentially to the surface of the retina. The distal tip is sharply beveled and adapted to discharge a fluid substance and to easily insert under the internal limiting membrane retinal layer and achieve occlusion of the lumen upon minimal insertion, and is sufficiently microscopic as to not substantially injure the neural retina when introduced under the ILM.

Patent AU-5346190-A (AU)
Title: Writing and drawing arrangement
Inventor: ANDERSSON JAN
IPC: B43K23/012
Filed: 1990-03-16
Abstract: The invention relates to a writing and drawing arrangement, referred to as a finger pen (2, 3, 4). We have clung to the traditional notion that pens or pencils must be rod-shaped in spite of the fact that this subjects the fine-motor function of the user to unnecessarily stringent demands. A study of the development of the fine-motor function of children proves that a semi-supine grip on rod-shaped pens or pencils can normally not be achieved out before the age of 6-7 years. The invention solves this problem by means of a finger pen (2, 3, 4), prone holding (1) of which is already possible at an age of 2-3 years, which generally makes possible its use in a manner which as regards the fine-motor function is simplified. Pen nib (5) projects from or in the vicinity of sensible centre of feeling (7) of writing/drawing finger (6) and is so angled that the point at which it contacts the writing/drawing surface will be seen by the user. Various alternatives of finger pen (2, 3, 4) are possible, e.g. of open type (2), closed type (3) or contoured shape (4). The invention applies mainly to writing/drawing while holding the pen in a prone position (1).

Patent AU-5906590-A (AU)
Title: Data communication method and system
Inventor: BLAIR CHRISTOPHER DOUGLAS
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 1990-07-16
Abstract: A method of multipoint communications utilises a protocol in which data messages (10) sent by a primary source are multicast to a plurality of secondary receiving stations (S1..Sn). Each message packet contains a control field comprising a station identifier code (14) and an instruction for the specified station to acknowledge a predetermined number of messages. Each successive message packet comprises a station identifier code which differs in an alterable set cyclical sequence. Thus, acknowledgements of correct receipt of data are taken in a cycle of length L such that in a space of L messages each receiver must acknowledge at least once. In this way the primary source need only keep the L latest messages because all the stations have acknowledged correct receipt of at least up to the current message minus L. The multipoint communications method uses a protocol which can be applied to existing communications networks.
